Bhe Story of Louis Pastewr’

2 ANNIVERSARIES TO CELEB
Jamestown Ready
To Honor Memory
of Louis Pasteur
The debt mankind owes to
Louis Pasteur, the French chem-
ist whose discovery that germs
are the cause, rather than the re-
sult, of disease added a score of
years to the life span of man,
will be acknowledged this month
throughout the civilized world by
both physicians and laity.
The four outstanding contri-
butions to health directly due to
the personal work of Pasteur are:
Sterilization of instruments
and hands in surgery;
The process known as “Pas-
teurization” which destroys the
dangerous bacteria in milk and
kills the microbes of fermenta-
tion of wine and beer;
The cause, and consequently the
cure, of anthrax;
The cause and cure of hydro-
phobia.
As an outgrowth of the two
latter works, the medical profes-
sion now has the science of in-
noculation against disease and
the fighting of toxins with anti-
toxins, which has eut down the
terrible death rate from diph-
theria to a minimum.

sary of Pasteur’s discovery of

proclamation issued yesterday by
May oregano sd ,» who
has joined with the mayors of
many other cities in honoring the
GIS COVERY mote feet s ai (fill in)
which occurred this month.
“The memory of Louis Pasteur
deserves especial honor not only
because of the man’s accomplish-
ments, but because of his char-
acter,” declared Mayor
“To that worried, persecuted
and ridiculed French chemist
mankind is indebted for 20 addi-
tional years in the span of life.
He discovered that germs caused,
rather than were caused by, dis-
ease; he preached, and was ex-
iled from Paris because of it,
the necessity of sterilizing hands
and instruments in surgical work,
and to him the great Dr. Liste
acknowledged his indebtedness;
he discovered the cause and cure
of anthrax and hydrophobia; he
taught how to ‘Pasteurize’ milk
and thus make it safe for babies.
“Medical science owes much to
him, but with it all he remained a
devout, God fearing, simple man,
who sought nothing for himself
except the right to work for hu-
manity. The lesson of his life is
one of simplicity and faith, in-
domitable courage and determin-
ation. There have been too few
such men. It is highly fitting that
MEM ete ie ho (city) joins with
the rest of the world in paying
tribute to Louis Pasteur.”

HOLD ‘PASTEUR WEEK’
Think you can arrange to have Hiz-
zoner make a statement to the papers
proclaiming “Pasteur Week?” If so,
you've got the start for a big cam-
paign on this angle.
TOWN HEARS SPEECHES
With Hizzoner awakening interest
by proclaiming ‘Pasteur Week,” it
should be comparatively easy to get
organizations anxious to hear about
Pasteur’s life. If so, try arranging for
professors and doctors to give talks
at Rotary luncheons and Women’s
clubs. With the town all hepped up
about science and Pasteur, logical
move is for them to see show, right?
DEPT. STORE TIES UP
With window devoted to furniture
of Pasteur’s time. Cards and banners
tell onlookers that store is holding
special sale of period furniture in
honor of the anniversary you're cele-
brating. And if they should want to
use stills from picture to enliven win-
dow a bit, we don’t think you'd ob-
ject particularly.
POWERCOMPANY,TOO!
Power company or electrical shop can
mark anniversary with exhibit show-
ing great strides made in home equip-
ment since Pasteur’s time. Modern
lights, stoves, irons, etc., are set
alongside replicas of those in use dur-
ing the scientist’s lifetime.

There was a time when Louis
Pasteur was an object of scorn
to the medical profession. This
was more than a century ago,
when the doctors of France could
not believe a mere chemist should
invade their field and accuse
them of being transmitters of dis-
ease rather than healers.

“While cases of hydrophobia
are very rare, there are facili-
ties for giving Pasteur treat-
ments in almost every’ well

Muni Considers
‘Pasteur’ Is His
Best Film Role
Paul Muni considers his role
as Louis Pasteur, the famous
French scientist, in which he will

his greatest characterization, but
the turning point in his screen
career.
Although Muni has given to
the world such famous characters
as “Searface,” the gang leader,
- the escaped convict in “I Am a
Fugitive,’ and the Slav miner
in “Black Fury,” this is the first
time he has portrayed a world
figure and given a characteriza-
tion exactly true to life.
His other roles were largely
fictional, or composites. Even his
part in “IT Am a Fugitive” was
not biographical, despite the fact
that it was based on the life
story of the author.
But Muni makes the real Louis
Pasteur live and breathe on the
screen—his make-up is taken
from photographs of the scien-
tist, many of the characters in
the film are historical, and every
incident is based on fact.
Pasteur’s life was go dramatic,
so filled with action, tragedy, ro-
mance and pathos, that nothing
else was needed to make it one of
the most gripping screen dramas
ever filmed. ‘
For the first time Muni’s pow-

“The Story of Louis Pasteur”
is Muni’s 10th picture in the
seven years he has been in the
screen.

Paul Muni Film
Drawing Throngs
To The Strand
Paul Muni’s tenth picture, “The
Story of Louis Pasteur,” the
Cosmopolitan production now
@Rowing at the... Theatre
as a First National release, will
take its place among the big
smash hits of the sereen from a
box office standpoint, according
Mee... » Manager of
—— Theatre.
So much interest has been
aroused by this first of the screen
biographies, for all incidents in
the film are taken from the life
of the great French Scientist,
that hundreds of people are com-
ing from adjoining communities,
Where the picture has not yet
been released, to gee it.
“The Story of Louis Pasteur’
may prove to be an even greater
box office picture than ‘T Am a
Fugitive From the Chain Gang’,”
ae (manager) declared.
“Muni draws crowds whenever
he appears in a picture for he
selects his own stories, and never
makes a picture until he is gure
that it provides real scope for
his artistry. Remember that he is
the outstanding star of the
screen, and has been in pictures
more than geven years, during
which he has made only 10 pie-
tures. Every one has been an ar-
tistic hit—and most of them have
been big money makerg for the
theatre. But ‘The Story of Louis
Pasteur’ seems likely to be as
big a box office picture as it is
an artistic success and that’s the
answer to every showman’s
dream.”
And here's another anniversary idea, based on the fact that this is
Muni's tenth film—and tenth big hit! That's worth a splash
if anything
is, SO we've devoted this Page to a big Muni build-up. Look and see
which stunts you can use, and then start lining up your own local angles.
@
DECORATING THEATRE
First of all, you'll want to decorate
your theatre so that everybody knows
it's Muni’s tenth. Giant candles and
banners on marquee proclaim your
anniversary show. In lobby, stills
from past pictures, stills of his vari-
ous leading ladies can all be worked
into displays.
AND CONTEST ANGLES
If you’re interested in contest angles,
still displays suggested above can
easily be transformed into contests.
All you do is leave the names or titles
out, and let the patrons try filling ’em
in. Ducats to winners.
INVITE DRAMA CRITICS
Since Muni was famous on the legiti-
mate stage before he went into Mo-
tion pictures you'll Probably want to
invite drama critics to see Muni’s
10th film. And while you're inviting,
you'd better contact Munj Club in
town and tell ’em to be Sure to see
show.

GIANT POSTCARD?
Giant postcard or telegram wouldn’t
be bad, would it? Copy congratulates
uni for swell work he’s done and
wishes him future success. Patrons
are invited to sign, and after about a
week is up, you send it out to the
Coast.
‘MUNI SCHOLARSHIP’
Dramatic school ties up with talent
search on Stage. First prize, called the
Paul Muni Scholarship, provides one
year’s free tuition at the school for
winner, while you give out ducats for
the other prizes.
ANNIVERSARY TRAILER
How about a special trailer telling
folks it’s Muni’s 10th hit? Showing
shots from past pictures, it can be
a sort of history of Muni’s work. If
Price is prohibitive, same idea can be
worked with a series of Slides.
BIG CAKE IN LOBBY
Credit card in lobby may be enough
inducement to get bakery to make
up a cake for lobby. Candles and in-
scription tell folks that it’s Muni’s
tenth successive hit. After it’s been
on display for a coupla days, you can
have gal cut it UP, giving a piece to
each patron.
Paul Muni Has
10th Sereen Hit
In Pasteur Film
Paul Muni, acknowledged to be
the greatest portrayer of charac-
ter roles on screen or stage, hag
been in motion pictures just seven
years, during which he hag ecre-
ated a new record.
Every picture he has made has
been a hit, each has’ been out-
standing and his tenth film, the
Cosmopolitan production “The
Story of Louis Pasteur” which
opens at the
tre on as a First
National release, is declared to
be his finest and most dramatic
work to date.
Muni never plays two charac-
ters that are similar. His first
two films were “Valient” and
“Seven: Faces,” which he made in
1928. Then he returned to the
stage until 1932 when two of his
greatest pictures were produced.
These were “Scarface” and “I Am
a Fugitive From a Chain Gang.”
The following year came “The
World Changes,” in 1934 he made
“Hi Nellie” and in 1935 he again
delighted all movie fans with
“Black Fury” and “Bordertown.”
These two great pictures were
followed by another of an entire-
ly different type “Dr. Socrates,”
and now Muni is starring in his
tenth picture the first biograph-
ical drama of the sereen “The
Story of Louis Pasteur,” which is
basea on
French scientist.

Many Film Fans
There’s one group of motion
picture experts of whom the most
conscientious film fan never
hears. They are the critics and
picture reviewers of the “trade
press,” those publications devoted
to the interests of the motion
picture industry.
These papers have an important
influence in determining at what
theatres a production will be
shown, and how long. Their re-
viewers see the pictures long be-
fore the general public even hears
of them, and they are steeped to
the eyebrows in picture affairs.
Rarely indeed do they agree in
favor of any one production, so
it ean be easily understood why
the motion picture industry sat
up with a jerk when one trade
paper after another raised its
editorial voice in paeans of praise
for Paul Muni and “The Story
of Louis Pasteur.”
Now the unbiased opinion of a
seasoned expert is worth know-
ing, so when the manager of the
TERR 2. Theatre booked the Cos-
mopolitan production “The Story
of Louis Pasteur” as his feature
attraction beginning ... eats
he decided he would acquaint
as ee (newspaper) readers
with their reviews.
But it is impossible to repub-
lish all the kind things said
about this latest and best of Paul
Muni’s films. Ordinarily, the trade
press experts use much of the
space alloted to a review in tell-
ing what is wrong with the pic
ture. This time, they devoted all
their space to telling how fine,
how gripping, how dramatic was
this new innovation in the art of
the motion picture—the making
of a great world figure live and
breathe on the screen in events
taken from his own life.
So the manager of the
Theatre and the advertising man-
agey..of 40M; «46-3 a roae (news-
paper) have decided to ask the
Bilin tWanig-0fe—..4e4r (eity) to aid

among the significant works of the screen. Told in such
fashion as to grip every audience it will reach, ‘The Story
of Louis Pasteur’ is headed for big acclaim. Profoundly
stirring as sheer drama, it will widen the range of picture
venturings. Muni is superb. Seldom has a picturer preview
shown so strongly shared interest of men and women. Men
were openly in tears of em
the audience.”’
otional response throughout
If you were the manager of a theatre that intended to
show Paul Muni in ‘‘The Story of Louis Pasteur,’’ you
would, of course, include some part of a ‘‘Variety’’ review
in your advertising matter. Excerpts of the review are
printed above the picture of Josephine Hutchinson.
‘Variety’? as everyone knows, is the weekly magazine
of the entertainment world. Edited by youthful, aggressive
Sid Silverman, ‘‘Variety’’ is a fearless critic whose writers
praise only when praise is due—and praise sparingly even
then.
Yet ‘‘Silverman,’’ excerpts of whose review are shown
above, found only the highest praise for Paul Muni and
‘“The Story of Louis Pasteur.’’

MARTIN QUIGLEY __ Motion Picture Herald
“In ‘The Story of Louis Pasteur’ the screen makes a great
departure from prosaic formula. There is not a single
trace of theatrical artificiality. Expertly acted and di-
rected, its power to create and hold interest immediately
gripped the preview audience and kept it in hushed
silence all the way through. Here is a picture the worth
of which is almost certain to impress both mass and class
alike.”
Now if you want to win two
tickets to see this film, there is
still time. If you have not al-
ready done so, clip all the reviews
(the one above written by Chick

lieve the strongest and send it to

Student Quiz On Pasteur
A grand way to get your plug into the schools
For An Editorial
Has your paper editorialized on a film lately?
If not, here’s a film that’s worthy of an editorial.
See your editor about having an editorial writer
down to opening, with the understanding that if
he doesn’t find anything in the film that he can
honestly editorialize about, he can drop the whole
thing. It’s worth the gamble, because the odds
are in your favor, since the chances are he’ll be
able to write more than one editorial. Or if edi-
tor prefers, below is an editorial already prepared
for newspaper use:
Those men and women who witnessed the new motion
picture quite fittingly named “The Story of Louis Pas-
teur,” at the Theatre last night may
congratulate themselves on having been among the first
to see the screen enter upon a new—and what will un-
doubtedly be—a greater field of usefulness. For the first
time, the motion picture turns biographer, and made clear
what most of us had forgotten, the debt mankind owes
to Louis Pasteur, who added a score of years to its
life span.
The story of the picture, and a critical analysis of the
work of the players is printed elsewhere in this news-
paper. It is, however, a privilege to point out to those
who do not read “movie reviews,” that here is an alto-
gether different picture. Here is history re-enacted on
the sereen—here are historical characters brought to life
so vividly and convincingly that no one will forget them
—here is shown the drama, the pathos, the romance, the
tragedy of the life of a man who dared raise his voice
against the ignorance and prejudice of his day, and who
defied kings and potentates alike because he knew he
was right.
We wish it were possible for every high school pupil
to see “The Story of Louis Pasteur.” Teachers of biology
and chemistry would find their tasks greatly lightened.
Page Eight
and interest students is to conduct a quiz on
Pasteur, preferably with the science class. Idea
was used on ‘Dream’ as suggested in the press-
book, and many exhibitors conducted a city-
wide test on Shakespeare, teachers marking
papers and awarding passes to students receiving
highest grades. Local science teachers could help
you with questions on Pasteur.
For A Formal Opening
Every opening the ‘Dream’ has
had at this writing has been
formal, and you’d be surprised
at the favorable reaction from
the papers. The top hat, white
tie and tails stuff resulted in
loads of photo breaks of the
celebs. Try it yourself!
Theatre Testimonials
The ‘Dream’ received testimonials of every sort
—displayed in lobby, theatre and front. This
film is just as worthy of testimonials, and here’s
how they did it on ‘Dream’—angles that could
be included in your campaign on this one.
Your artist could make up a lobby testimonial
to Warner Bros., congratulating them on excel-
lence of film and asking them to make many
more of this type. Patrons put their John Han-
cocks on. Before trailer flashes‘on, manager could
step up on stage and address audience, giving
film his personal endorsement, stressing the
many aspects of the film, and then telling folks
that they'll be showa redfew °! the exciting scen

doubtless receive many written testimonials
from social and educational leaders on the film.
These, displayed in lobby, should prove interest-
ing. No? |
See Civic Organizations
No doubt you’re going to contact civic and social
organizations. One of the best ways we know
of. and one that was used extensively in the
‘Dream,’ was to personally speak at their meet-
ings. Harry Goldberg of Philadelphia spent a week
going from meeting to meeting delivering his
spiel, ending up with a hoarse voice and enough
seats sold to assure the success of his engage-
ment.
Lobby Bulletin Board
Many theatres used their bulletin boards in the
lobby in advance of their ‘Dream’ showings, post-
ing news clips, photos and pressbook stories daily
advising the patrons of the coming of the film
and of its many interesting aspects.
CAMPAIGNING VIA THE AIR WAVES

“bhe Stary of Louis Pasteur"
No need going into any long-winded explanations
of why this film would be of interest to doctors,
nurses and staffs of hospitals. Here’s how to go
about telling ’em . . . some new ideas, but mostly
those we’ve seen actually put in practice—and
successfully, too.
LETTER-WRITING
Writing letters to the doctors, nurses and hos-
pital workers is just about the best method we
know of to tell ’em about the film. Stress the
Louis Pasteur angle when contacting these peo-
ple—because that’s what they’ll be interested in.
They're familiar with what this man did for the
medical profession.
SPECIAL SCREENING
There might be enough publicity value in it to
screen the film before opening to a number of
the leading medicos in town . . . right in the
hospital. If you do, be sure that all the doctors
in town aren't there, because after all, you still
have to figure on those guys to help fill your
theatre.
PHONE NUMBERS AT BOX-OFFICE
Many of the medical profession will feel that
they’re neglecting business if they’re at the the-
atre seeing the film. So tell ’em that if they’ll
leave their name at the box-office, you’ll be
tickled to death to call them in the event that
~ they receive'a Call during tne Snow: -
"THEATRE PARTY
Get busy right after you book this film about
arranging a theatre party for the medical pro-
fession. If you’re in any decent sized town there
should be enough doctors, nurses and the like
to fill the theatre.
COMMENTS FROM THE DOCS
The M.D.’s will be lavish with praise for the film.
Get their written endorsements and then use
the comments of the biggest and best known
men for your lobby and ads. A trailer could be
made up locally along the same line.
CONTACTING MED STUDENTS
If there’s a medical school in town, those boys
are would-be prospects, every one of ’em. They’re
studying along these lines and will be especially
interested. Tell ’em with heralds, bulletin board
notes and by getting their instructors to advise
them about it.
NEWSPAPER INTERVIEWS
Might be able to get a big medical expert to give
an interview to the newshounds on Louis Pas-
teur, talking about his contributions to science,
etc.
FREE RADIO SKETCH
In addition to dra-
matic scenes from the
picture, sketch con-
tains interesting info
about Muni. Twelve
minutes in length, it |
leaves three minutes ™
at beginning and end for picture
plug. A note to Campaign Plan Edi-
tor, 321 West 44th Street, New York
City, will bring you a mimeographed
copy for each member of cast.

JUMBO-SIZED HERALD
Another big herald on another big
hit! Sorry we haven’t room to illus-
trate it here, because it’s a colorful
job that should help a lot toward sell-
ing film. Printed in vivid colors on
high grade stock, herald measures 9”
x 12”—+twice the size of the regular
heralds. Cover and inside spread are
devoted to plugging picture, with
entire back reserved for theatre im-
print. Expensive? Not on your life!
Price is only $3.50 per M for 1 to
4M; 5M and over—$3.25 per M.
Ask for a sample at your exchange.
Church Is Interested
Pasteur was a devout Catholic—one of the few
scientists who was very religious. This suggests
contacting Church to see if theatre party can be
organized. If not, a word to the congregation and
possibly a short talk to youngsters at Sunday
School might interest them in your show.
Tell Them About Leiber
If your town has ever had a Shakespearean pro-
duction, Fritz Leiber was probably in the cast
because he’s toured all over the country playing
in the Bard’s plays. If dr i
LeIwer, hess ee ama editor remembers
and he might give you a little plug in his column.

you to say, prisoner at the bar?”’
The audience in the little Magistrate’s court in the Paris
of 1860 leaned forward eagerly to catch the reply of the
middle-class tradesman who stood
between two gendarmes facing
the silk-robed judge.
“Tt was not murder. It was but
justice!”? exclaimed the defend-
ant. “Dr. Frederic wronged me!
He killed my wife!”
“There has been no such show-
ing,” the Magistrate said. “How
did the doctor kill your wife?”
“He killed her through his
carelessness—his dirty hands, his
dirty instruments. She died of
childbed fever. He caused it.”
The men and women in the
benches looked at each other in
astonishment. Childbed fever?
What did the prisoner mean by
his accusation? Everyone knew
that about three out of every ten
prospective mothers in Paris died
from that affliction. Was it not
part of the inscrutable ways of
Providence? The Magistrate

“But you can’t blame a physi-

“Can't you?” shouted the de-

He tossed to the judge’s desk a
pamphlet whose first page read:

Louis Pasteur.”
The Magistrate looked casually
through the booklet for a mo-
ment, then threw it aside.
“This prisoner is mad,” he said.
“Tock him up.”
Mad? That, indeed, seemed to
be a widespread belief as to the
condition, also, of Louis Pasteur,
author of this pamphlet and of
many other radical utterances of
the day. The physicians of Paris,
almost to a man, ridiculed his
theories, paid no attention to his
advice. Seriously, many sought
his banishment from the city.
“Why, he isn’t even a doctor,
Dr. Charbonnet, court physician,

ago he was the cause of a slight
SYNOPSIS OF PREVIOUS CHAPTER
Because childbirth fever was killing thousands of
French women, Louis Pasteur, a noted chemist, issued
a pamphlet calling upon physicians to sterilize their
hands and instruments. When a physician whose pa-
tient had died in childbirth was killed by the woman’s
bereaved husband, Pasteur was summoned to the Court
by Emperor Napoleon III for an explanation of his
attacks on the surgeons and their methods.
CHAPTER II
Louis Pasteur bent over the
shoulder of his chief assistant,
Emile Roux, in his laboratory in
the basement of his home in Rue
d’Ulm. He was in his middle
thirties, a man of quick, agile
movements.
Pasteur looked into the micro-
scope. “The (fifty-eighth test
slide, and yet we have not defin-
itely isolated the germ of child-
bed fever,” he said wearily. “But
we'll keep it up, Roux. Remember
our aim: find the microbe — kill
the microbe!”
There was a knock at the lab-
oratory door. Marie, Pasteur’s
wife, entered in high excitement.
She carried an envelope bearing
the royal arms of the Emperor
of France. It was an invitation—
a command, indeed—for the sci-
entist to attend a reception that
night at the Palace.
“The Emperor!” exclaimed Pas-
teur. “Marie! If I can only con-
vinee his Majesty!”
But that was not to be. So in-
tense was the chemist in his open-
ing explanations of his microbe
theory to Napoleon, that the Em-
peror, well-balanced though he
was, believed there might be a
trace of madness about the man,
as Dr. Charbonnet had more than
once suggested.
“Sire, the hospitals of Paris
are pest houses!” Pasteur insisted.
“There is scarcely a doctor in
the city who is not carrying
death on his hands and instru-
ments.” ’
And when Charbonnet said sar-
castically, “Because of microbes,
Monsieur? Because of your pri-
vate menagerie of invisible
beasts?” the chemist was quick
with a hot retort.
A chorus of laughter from the
surrounding courtiers and ladies-
in-waiting drove away what re-
mained of Pasteur’s patience. He
pointed his finger at Charbonnet.
“Listen! On my way here to-
night, I learned that a young
woman—wife of a servant in this
Court—died, a victim of your
bigotry. And that isn’t the end.
The woman who attended her
will carry the infection to your
next and more illustrious patient
—the Countess Gabrielle de Vil-
lefort!”

“But I won’t have it, Charbon-

upon a table. “We’re not living
in the Middle Ages. This is
France—Paris—the Nineteenth
Century—”
“At least,” a quiet voice inter-
jected, “this Monsieur Pasteur

Empress was speaking.

“Stop! I forbid any more,”
commanded Napoleon. “You

Countess Gabrielle, whom you

“Pasteur, in the preservation
of wine and beer you have been

yourself to that work. If you

you will, before publishing them,
present them in writing to the
Academy of Medicine, which is

tional health.” ;
Pasteur choked back further
words, and stood bowed.
“But, Sire, what of the pam-
phlet this fellow has already
written and distributed?” The
speaker was Dr. Rossignol, a con-
frere of Charbonnet and one of
the leaders of the Academy.
“Wor that, Monsieur Pasteur,
you will publish an immediate re-
traction or suffer my displeas-

Pasteur turned away.

dropped into a chair and covered
his face with his hands.

Now, in a sensational screen
drama, he has a role that is her-
alded as the greatest work of his
career.
Again, as in the chain gang
picture, he portrays a real per-
son—this time a man recognized
as one of the world’s greatest
benefactors, Louis Pasteur.
Hated and scorned, a pariah
and an outcast, branded as a
quack, a charletan and an enemy
of man, Pasteur lived to see his
work recognized and himself. ac-
claimed as the greatest scientist
of his age.
It is this great character that
Muni brings to life on the screen.
It is the thrilling drama of
Pasteur’s battle: for the human
race, that is unfolded in “The

Ot thet sass ees aaa Theatre to-
day in what is said to be his
greatest film characterization,
“The Story of Louis Pasteur,” a
Cosmopolitan production released
by First National.
Muni portrays Louis Pasteur,
the great French chemist and bac-
teriologist who contributed so
much to science. The story, by
Sheridan Gibney and Pierre Col-
lings, centers about Pasteur’s
battle against ignorance and pre-
judice, to save life through ster-
ilization and the use of vaccines
against disease.
So bitter against him, and so
powerful were the physicians who
hated him, that they succeeded
in having him banished from
Paris. But Pasteur did not give
up his fight against disease. He
struggled on in a different part
of France and lived to see his
work recognized finally and he
himself acclaimed.
Josephine Hutchinson plays
the part of his faithful wife who
shared his exile and aided him
in his experimental work. The
romantic roles are carried out by
Anita Louise, as the daughter of
Pasteur, and Donald Woods who
portrays one of the few physi-
cians who believed in the great
chemist.

Bride on Screen Muni Has Finest Role in
When Anita Louise was a
child, she played grown-ups.
When she grew up, she played
children.
And in “The Story of Louis
Pasteur,” the Cosmopolitan pro-
duction which comes to the: 27:
SEP lige a Theatre: on 597 eae
with Paul Muni in the stellar
role, she plays both a child and
a bride.
When Anita was thirteen, she
played the love interest in “Just
Like Heaven,” opposite David
Newell. She was suposed to be
eighteen yearg old, and she acted
it. That same year she played a
young lady in “The Third Alarm”
and also in “Millie.”
Then Miss Louise played a tiny
fairy queen in “A Midsummer
Night’s Dream.”
In “The Story of Louis Pas-
teur,”. Miss Louise is first seen
as a girl of eleven. Only a dif-
ferent hair dress and a childish
costume were needed to make her
look that age. The make-up man
had a much more difficult time
trying to make her look like a
woman of 22 in the later se-
quences of the film.
Miss Louise has been in pie-
tures since she wag five years
old. However, it was not until
she came to First National studio
that her great talent was recog-
nized.
“The Story of Louis Pasteur”
is a dramatization of the stirring
events in Louis Pasteur’s battle
against ignorance and his efforts
to save life by science. Paul
Muni has the stellar role while
others in the cast besides Miss
Louise include Josephine Hutch-
inson, Donald Woods, Fritz
Lieber, Henry O’Neill and Porter
Hall.
William Dieterle directed the
eroduction from the sereen play
by Sheridan Gibney and Pierre
Collings.
“Story of Louis Pasteur’?
Screen Star Thrills Strand Audience With
Magnificent Characterization
Paul Muni has seored again. In the Cosmopolitan produc-
duction, ‘‘The Story of Louis Pasteur,’’ which was shown
for the first time locally: at: thespa eta: ds Theatre as a
First National release yesterday, he has given the world
not only one of the finest characterizations ever depicted on
the sereen but has made a real
motion pictures.
In a tense, smashing drama,
replete with action and romance,
he has painted the turbulent life
of Louis Pasteur, that amazing
French scientist whose battle for
humanity against ignorance and
prejudice is one of the most as-
tounding chapters in modern his-
tory in an amazingly colorful
picture,
It is hard to realize that there
could be such momentous drama
in Pasteur’s life for in popular
imagination he is an almost leg-
endary figure. The story is not
just one of the microscope and
the laboratory, although even
that portion of the picture has
been made intensely interesting.
The picture dramatizes his bat-
tle against the ignorance, super-
stition and prejudice of the
times. Physicians high in the
favor of the court branded him
as a charlatan and fought his
every move. So powerful were
they that they had him banished
from Paris.
But this sterling character
could not be Swayed from his
work to save humanity, even
against its own wish. He carried
on with a few faithful follow-
ers, turning his back to the scorn
and hatred of his fellow scien-
tists. And he lived to triumph
over them, to be recognized as
the greatest of them all.
Paul Muni, famous on the
contribution to the art of
ee
stage before he brought his tal-
ents to the screen, gives much
more than a fine characteriza-
tion. There is no Muni. He has
entirely effaced himself, and
makes Pasteur live and breathe
on the sereen. He is Pasteur—
working, battling for humanity.
The spectator is never conscious
of the actor; he sees only the
man Pasteur.
Muni has an exceptionally tal-
ented supporting cast, chief of
whom is Josephine Hutchinson,
who plays Mme. Pasteur the wife
who stood staunchly beside the
chemist during all of his trials
and aided him in his work. Miss
Hutchinson is a comparatively
new acquisition to the screen,
although she long been famous
on the stage, particularly for her
work with the Eva Le Gallienne
repertoire company.
Miss Hutchinson showed great
promise in her other films, “Hap-
piness,” “The Right to Live” and
in “Oil for the Lamps of China,”
but in “The Story of Louis Pas-
teur” she has given a perfrom-
ance of remarkable artistry,
which places her among the lead-
ing feminine players of the
screen. She portrays her role with
both sympathy and understand-
ing.

Expert “Grows”
Whiskers For an
Entire Film Cast
To most people, whiskers are
just whiskers. They see no
beauty in a magnificent beaver
no grace in a perfect Van Dyke,
no symmetry in a well (Aaiuied
Spade.
But there was a time when
whiskers had their day. Those
were the years when each man
raised his own hair mattress and
when a clean shave was as out
of place as a home without a
moustache cup.
Because of the modern atti-
tude toward the old-fashioned
beaver, there are few whisker
experts in Hollywood. Norbert
Miles is one of them.

holds that every whisker has a

There isn’t one split Spade in
the picture. There are several au-

There are no good restaurants
in the Simi valley in California,
where the First National com-

scenes for “The Story of Louis

duction, now showing at the...

Furthermore, in the lunches
furnished the players by the stu-
dio, there is no sour cream, green
onions, broiled sword-fish, cucum-
bers, radishes, and other such
delicacies that mean 80 much to
Paul Muni, star of the film.
Mrs. Muni, however, solved her
husband’s location lunch: problem,
by buying him the most elaborate
luneh basket ever owned by an
actor.
The basket, of heavy wicker,
is fitted with hot and cold food
containers, thermos bottles,
dishes, knives, forks and spoons,
table cloths and napkins.
Every day, Mrs. Muni took the
basket and a folding table to the
eompany’s location and at twelve
o’clock, when Muni stops work,
he sat down to the sort of lunch
he loves.
The picture
is the startling
drama of Louis Pasteur’s fight
to overcome the ignorance pre-
vailing at his time in order to
save life by science. Besides
Muni the cast includes Josephine

tary of Louis Pasteur’
Film Discipline
Very Strict, Says
Miss Hutchinson
Two Muni Characters
Stories that have come out of
Hollywood concerning the tem-
perament of actors and actresses
would indicate that there is no
such thing as screen discipline.
Josephine Hutchinson denies
this. She claims that motion pic-
tures teach more _ self-control
than the stage ever knew.
Miss Hutchinson knows both
the stage and screen. For several
years she was a stage actress.
She came td the attention of the
screen when she played “Alice”
in Eva Le Gallienne’s production
of “Alice in Wonderland.” So far
she has made five pictures for
First National, the latest of
which is “The Story of Louis
Pasteur,” the Cosmopolitan pro-
duction now showing at the .
s/hobe hs 5 ar ee rR Theatre.
Miss Hutchinson has _ never
been temperamental. But, in the
new atmosphere of cameras, tech-
nicians, scripts that were re-
written on the set after she had
carefully memorized her part, she
found herself on the ae of
having a tantrum now and then.
“We have only so much ener-
gy,” Miss Hutchinson points out.
Film acting teaches one to con-
serve it. We are called at seven
in the morning. Eleven or more
hours of work stretch ahead. We
must never give way to our feel-
ings, or valuable energy is burned

Role of Pasteur
Most Colorful
Paul Muni never really takes
a vacation. When he completed
the picture, “Dr. Socrates,” he
immediately went into seclusion
on his Encino walnut ranch to
study the character of the Cos-
mopolitan production, “The Story
of Louis Pasteur,” which comes
Theatre on
as a First
National release.
Muni was enthusiastic about
the film and spent several weeks
actually living the character
which is that of Louis Pasteur,
the great chemist and bacteriol-
ogist.
“T was more enthralled by this
role than any other character I
have done on the sereen,” said
Muni. “This scientist was not
only one of the few great humani-
tarians who gave unselfishly with-
out regard to personal gain or
glory, but he was the rare com-
bination of theorist and practi-
tioner who actually lived to see
his efforts and contributions put
into effect and lived to witness
the saving of thousands of hu-
mans, mostly children.
“Ag a character, he has more
facets than any other I can think
of. He was 4 giant, with the
naivete of a ehild.
“T am grateful for the oppor-
tunity to attempt a characteriza-
tion of Pasteur. Tf I have suc-
eeeded in imparting to the on-
looker only a small part of him,
it makes of it my most colorful
role.”
The picture is a dynamic
drama of the battle fought for
science by Pasteur. Others in the
cast include Josephine Hutchin-
son, Anita Louise, Donald Woods,
Fritz Leiber, Henry
Porter Hall. William Dieterle di-
rected the picture from the

and Pierre Collings.

In a gilt and glass cabinet in

Paul Muni in the stellar role.
Miss Louise wore the sandals
the first day she posed as an art-
ist’s model when she was only a
child. The toes are worn through
and the soles are thin, but Anita
Louise values them as symbols of
a baby’s first steps toward pro-
fessional success.
She started posing for artists
when she was three years old.
ee a time she was known as the
Post Toastie” girl. On another
occasion her likeness was used
ue illustrate a much advertised
Poem of Peace” which was dedi-
cated to the then President of the
United States, Warren G. Har-
ding.
“T’ll always keep those san-
dals,” Miss Louise says. “They
are symbolic of the hard time I
had getting up the film ladder.
I was always certain that some
day I would get leading parts in
pictures, even though there were
times when that day seemed a
long, long way off.”

Lewis Carroll’s walrus could
talk of shoes and ships and seal-

But he didn’t know if champagne
buckets were used in 1880, and
when a bunsen burner was in-
vented, what a Bowie knife is,
or how old are bicycle playing

from a slung-shot or whether or
not the Hydrophobia Bacilli has
been isolated?

Here are some more of the
screen playwriter’s questions and
Mrs. Bowman’s answers:
Q.—Did Louis Pasteur isolate
Hydrophobia Bacteria? A.—He
did not and it hasn’t been iso-
lated up to the present time.
Q.—Could a human being be-
come afflicted with the animal
disease, anthrax? A.—yYes.
Q.—Were champagne buckets
used in 1880? A.—Yes.
Q.—Did Louis Pasteur smoke a
straight stemmed pipe? A.—wNo.
He detested the smell of smoke.
Q.—Could Pasteur light a
match or had they been invented
in 1880? A.—Yes. Matches had
been in use since the thirties.
Q.—Would Pasteur’s labora-
tories include a Bunsen burner?
A.—Yes. The Bunsen burner was
invented about 15 years before
Pasteur began his experiments.
Josephine Hutchinson is her
real name, and she was born in
Seattle, Washington, on October
12th, 1909.
Her mother—stage name, Le-
ona Roberts—is an actress, and
the daughter was educated for a
footlight career. She studied mus-
ie and dancing with the one idea
that these arts would help her
in her theatrical career.
Was educated in the schools
of Seattle, and won a splendid
scholarship in the Cornish School
of Music and Drama.
Her screen debut was made
when she was a tiny child.
Played a “little girl” role with
Mary Pickford in “The Little
Princess.” Worked during the
summer, then returned to school
in Seattle. Her “talkie” debut
was in “Happiness Ahead.”
Made her theatrical debut in
Washington, D. ©., where she
played three years in stock. “A
Man’s Man” was her first im-
portant play in New York. She
found her real theatrical niche,
however, with Eva Le Gallienne’s
New York Civie Repertory Com-
pany, in which she played in
everything from Shakespeare to
Ibsen to Chekov to “Alice in
Wonderland.”

Eva Le Gallienne, Ina Claire,
Helen Hayes, Katherine Cornell
and Noel Coward.
Her favorite playwrights are
Anton Chekov and Noel Coward,
and she adores the music of Bee-
thoven.
She has done a lot of traveling.
Says she likes Paris, New York
and San Francisco, and _ finds
parts of Italy very interesting.
As for places to buy clothes, she
prefers London above Paris and
New York ahead of Hollywood.
Her chief aversion she de-
clareg are “prying people.” As for
pet economies, she says she hasn’t
a champagne appetite, but at the
same time has no special econo-
mies. Everything in moderation.
To keep fit? When on the stage
she fences daily for exercise. Now
she rides every morning, swims,
dances, and exercises under su-
pervision.
Has no special diet. Likes sim-
ple food. But prefers French
cooking.
Her beauty secrets are modest.
Rest and more rest, she says.
Her favorite outdoor sports
are swimming and riding. And
she likes to watch football games
and hockey matches.
She wears no precious jewelry
of any kind, but likes old cos-
tume jewelry. Wears a small
compass on a necklace which once
belonged to Duse.
She is collecting dolls, a hobby
she started almost unwillingly be-
cause of the great number given
to her in the child roles she has
played, especially in “Alice in
Wonderland.” Has a great many
now, some of them unique and
valuable.

aid her in her stage and screen
work, not to tickle her vanity.
She never mails a letter the
day she writes it. Puts it away
for a while and re-reads it before
she mails it—if she does mail it.
She knits well, but believes it is
a pernicious habit, too great a
waster of time.
Her favorite color is brown,

She does not favor domesticity.
Was married to Robert Bell for
three years. Divorced in Reno.
She names George Moore as

many of the pioneer women had
it. They weren’t all gaunt and

so when he came to cast “The

the heroine is a sort of pioneer,
he looked for an actress who had
that rare quality.
He found it in fragile, petite,
delicately winsome Josephine

star who went to Hollywood after
many triumphs in New York, has
a dainty little chin, with the
most alluring dimple. But on
closer inspection it proves to be

Woman Laboratory Worker Makes Life
Sacrifice to War on Disease
It was the week before last Christmas, but studious Miss
Anna Pabst, 39, doubtless was not thinking of that as she
patiently pursued an experiment in the quiet of the Wash-
ington laboratory of the U. S. Public Health Service.
_ Miss Pabst was seeking a serum which would protect
little children from deadly meningitis. She was hoping that
this test—one of many—would
provide the answer.
As she bent over a culture of
the as yet untested serum, her
hand slipped and a few drops of
the liquid squirted into her eye.
A veteran in laboratory tech-
nique, she knew better than to
take the accident lightly. She
washed the eye thoroughly—that
was all she could do. Then she
went on with her work.
On December 21, she was do-
ing her Christmas shopping when
a sudden dizziness overtook her.
She hurried to the Emergency
Hospital, where she diagnosed her
own case. Four days later she
died—and thereby demonstrated
that the culture she had used in
preparing the protective serum
actually could cause meningitis.
Soldier of Science Falls
Newspapers reported the event
briefly, noting that here was the
sixth life in the last decade to
be sacrificed in the line of scien-
tific duty. The story was brief,

Scientists and doctors, gather-
ing in New York on Pasteur’s
birthday, were thrilled at the
dramatization of his indomitable
fight against prejudice, profes-
sional jealousy and the ignorance
of his time. In “The Story of
Louis Pasteur,” as portrayed by

The Franco-Prussian war flared
and, while France echoed to the

ceived recognition.
Back in Paris, he plunged into
the greatest task of his life-—
the search for a cure for hydro-
phobia. At every town, he met
criticism and scoffing, ignorance
and jealousy.
Thousands of persons were dy-
ing annually from the bites of
mad animals. There was no
known cure. Witches chanted
their incantanations.
Assailed by Troubles
One day, Pasteur heard voices
outside his laboratory. Twenty-
five Russian peasants, bitten by
rabid wolves, had come from
their native land to plead for
his help.
Pasteur, facing the greatest
crisis of his life, ordered them
isolated in a hospital. His cure
for rabies had been proven on
animals and with one young boy.
Did he dare risk the lives of 25
men? He knew the penalty for
failure—exile, disgrace, perhaps
even the guillotine.
Worries crowded him. His
daughter was to bear a child. On
the evening of the day the child
was born, a stroke paralyzed his
side. He. was unconscious for
days.
He awoke, remembering the
Russians. Three had died; the
others faced almost certain
death. With indomitable will,
Pasteur struggled from his sick
bed and insisted that he be taken
to the hospital. From his wheel
chair, he ministered to the re-
maining Russians and saved the
life of every one.

National studios here and in England.
‘‘Hand props’’ are hand properties; that is, eye glasses,
cigars, cigarettes, pipes, hats, canes, magazines, lipsticks,
handbags, letters and other objects actors and actresses use
for bits of business.
In cutting a picture, ‘‘hand props’’ assume great im-
portance, Dawson says. Most players forget them. In a long
have cigars in their
and in closeups have
in their right hands.
shot they
left hands
the cigars
Or in a cooking scene an ac-
tress will flip pancakes with her
right hand for the long shot and
flip them with her left hand for
the closeup—unless the script
girl or director catcher her at it.
There is one actor in Holly-
wood who never forgets his
“hand props,” Dawson says. His
name is Paul Muni and he re-
membered them in “The Story of
Louis Pasteur,” the Cosmopolitan
production, which comes to the
. tie er THe athe COM... 0.10 je
as a First National release.
Dawson edited the film. He
also edited “Dr. Socrates.” His
biggest cutting job so far has
been a “Midsummer Night’s
Dream” in which he has such
hand props as fairies’ wands and
fiddles made from leaves to wor-
ry about.
“Mr. Muni realizes the impor-
tance of handling his ‘hand
props’ at the proper time, regard-
less of the number of takes,”
Dawson says. “As a result, it is
simple to get a smoothly cut pic-
ture.
“It is possible to change the
camera angles in cutting without
having to worry about his cigar
being in his mouth when it should
be out, or his glasses on his nose
when they should be in his right
hand.
“He so thoroughly steeps him-
self in the character he is por-
traying that he works out to the
finest detail, each little move-
ment, gesture and piece of busi-
ness before he comes on the set.
Unconsciously, if the scene calls
for him to remove his glasses, he
invariably removes them at the
same point of action.
“You see, the eye follows the
moving object on the screen. For
that reason, the film editor usu-
ally cuts or changes camera ang-
les at the point of movement,
such as sitting, rising, turning or
gesturing. But if the actor does
not always make these move-
ments at the same point in the
dialogue it makes it difficult for
the editor to cut the picture
smoothly.
“The best edited picture is that
in which one is not conscious of
cuts. That is why Mr. Muni is
so particular about never chang-
ing his actions and pieces of busi-
ness, nd matter how many differ-
ent angles are photographed.”
Dawson says he didn’t find a
single new grey hair after cut-
ting “The Story of Louis Pas-
teur.”
The picture is a dynamic dra-
ma of the battle fought for sci-
ence by Louis Pasteur. Muni has
the stellar role, others in the cast
being Josephine Hutchinson, Anita
Louise, Donald Woods, Fritz Lei-
ber, Henry O’Neill and Porter
Hall. William Dieterle directed.

On Completing Picture
Puts Every Ounce of Energy Into Character of
Pasteur in “Enemy of Man”
By CARLISLE JONES
By the time one of his pictures is finished, Paul Muni is
sure to have that ‘‘lean and hungry look’’ which is sup-
posed to appear on the face of a man who thinks too much.
According to all his associates, Muni is the ‘‘thinkingest
actor’’ in the whole of Hollywood.
“‘Long ago David Warfield told me that the only way an
actor can really get into a part is to practice a kind of
self hypnosis,” Muni explains. “I
am inclined to agree with him.
Before I start a picture and after
I finish it I am naturally anxious
that it be a success with the pub-
lic; that the audiences like it
and like me in it.
“But while the picture is in the
making, while I am playing the
part, I have no time and no ener-
gy to think or worry about such
things. I am too busy thinking
and worrying about the character
I am_ playing.
“The result is that I use up
an enormous supply of nervous
energy during the weeks a pic-
ture is in production. I come out
of it tired and cross and vowing
I will never undertake such hard
work again. But after a few
weeks of rest and relaxation I
feel differently about every-
thing.”
The actor took time during the
production of his latest Cosmo-
politan production, “The Story
of Louis Pasteur,” which comes
TO MGHOk si coos & theatre on.......
as a First National release, to
talk sketchily about his plans for
the future and to give his opin-
ions about his screen work of the
past.
May Return to Stage
“Each time I get ready to
leave Hollywood for New York
I am asked the same question,”
he explained. “‘Are you going
to do a stage play while you are
there ?
“The answer is always the
same. If I bump into a play I
like and the chance is offered me
to play it, Pll probably play it.
But if I don’t—I won’t. That’s
all,’
“When I first read a seript
I go over each of the important
scenes and grade them, much as
a teacher grades an examination
paper. I start at fifteen percent,
however, instead of at zero, and
I try to rate the dramatic or
pictorial or comedy value of each
sequence by a corresponding fig-
ure. I seldom get above 85 per-
cent for any one scene. An 85
percent sequence is, in my opin-
ion, a great scene.
“After I’ve graded the scenes
I add the total and divide and
then I have a grade for the
whole script. If it isn’t high
enough to suit me, I don’t play it.
“In ‘The Story of Louis Pas-
teur,’ for example, which is a
y portrayals
Paso
lS —-
strong story, there are at least
two scenes which I rated at 85
percent. This pictures rates, ac-
cording to my system of grading,
a little higher in dramatic value
than ‘I Am a Fugitive’ did. It
will be interesting to see if my
grading works out with the pub-
lie.
“In no two of the nine pic-
tures I have made,” Muni went
on in response to further ques-
tioning, “have the roles I played
been similar. I don’t want to play
two parts that are alike. That
adds to our difficulties in finding
new scripts and is one reason I
have always refused to contract
myself to make any considerable
number of pictures each year.
“Not all my pictures have been
huge successes, you know. ‘The
World Changes’ didn’t do as well
as we hoped it would.
Must Feel His Roles
“What I’m trying to say is that
I have turned down many good
roles and no doubt will turn
down many more because they
are parts that are similar to
those I’ve already played. Short-
ly after I appeared first in the
stage play ‘Counselor at Law’ a
woman playwright brought me a
script of a new play.
“ Tt fits you exactly,’ she said.
‘It’s exactly the kind of a part
you played in ‘Counselor at Law.’
“T am indulging deeply in an
actor’s worst habit—that of talk-
ing about himself. It’s probably
the subject I know most about.
But I’d rather talk about Rus-
sia, which I visited last year or
about walnuts, which I raise, in
small quantities, on my Van Nuys
ranch.
“The Story of Louis Pasteur”
is a thrilling drama of the life
of the famous scientist, Louis
Pasteur, who discovered the cure
for rabies. Muni has the stellar
role while others in the east in-
clude Josephine Hutchinson,
Anita Louise, Donald Woods,
Fritz Leiber and Porter Hall.

based on the life of Pasteur.
Anything ornate or rococo is
anathema to Mr. Haas. He hates
plush and velvet and carved
woodwork and _ flowered wall
paper. He would much rather
build simple farmhouses than em-
peror’s palaces. He had oppor-
tunity to do both for “The Story
of Louis Pasteur.”
To him, the most artistic set
in the picture is Pasteur’s farm-
house. It is a stone dwelling with
a thatched roof. In front is an
old wooden pump and there is a
stone wall off to the left. It
stands in a grove of poplars. The
house is near the village of Simi,
which is anything but French.

Art Director for “Story of Louis Pasteur’? Turns
65 Years
Art Director Robert Haas transformed a section of the
Santa Paula Valley of California of today into the province
1870.
With some lumber, wall paper, paint, furniture and car-
pets he built the reception room of Emperor Napoleon ILI,
the council chamber of the French Academy of Medicine,
Haas had to forget his dislike
for plush and velvet in designing
a portion of the emperor’s pal-
ace. A massive room, with cupids
on the ceiling, and with flowered
walls, was built and filled with
French furniture of the period.
Every chair in that room is a
character chair.
It was in designing the Pasteur
kitchen, where Josephine Hutch-
inson as Mrs. Pasteur, and Anita
Louis, as Annette Pasteur, pre-
side, that Haas really enjoyed
himself. He had opportunity to
demonstrate his flair for sim-
plicity, for plain lines and plain,
almost harsh furnishings. The
chimney corner with its shining
copper kettles and pots is a Haas’
masterpiece.
The most elaborate part of the
set building program for the pic-
ture was the building of Paris.
Old sets on the back of the First
National lot were cleared away
and portions of the old city con-
structed there.

ses Identity
many parts, and Paul Muni
He has changed his identity hundreds of times. Some-
times he has been an old man, sometimes a lawyer, some-
times a criminal.
But there is one part he has
never played in front of the
eamera or the footlights—he has
never portrayed Paul Muni.
“And I wish I could,” he says.
“Tt would be so much less work.”
They say the camera never lies.
In the case of James Cagney,
for instance, this is true. The
man you see on the screen is
James Cagney. Even though he
plays the part of a public enemy,
a super salesman or the ruler of
the Barbary Coast, he never quite
loses his identity. Always there
is some quality in every charac-
ter he plays that is essentially
Cagney.
And this is true of, other play-
ers—of Anita Louise, Josephine
Hutchinson, Donald Woods, Olivia
De Havilland, Jean Muir, Joan
Blondell, Erroll Flynn or Guy
Kibbee. In each instance, the
characters they play have some
of the characteristies of the play-
ers.
In the case of Muni, starring
in “The Story of Louis Pasteur,”
the Cosmopolitan picture now
showing at the .....-. Theatre as
a First National release, the
camera never tells the truth. The
lens never penetrates the dis-
guise, never sees that it is Muni
hiding behind Pasteur’s whisk-
ers, or Dr. Cardwell’s moustache,
or Jan’s bewildered and begrimed
countenance. Muni won’t let the
eamera see him as he is. He’s
afraid the audience wouldn’t like
him.
At the age of 11, when he
joined his parents’ troupe, Muni
began losing himself in the char-
acters he played. There was @
good reason then. He was a child,
yet he was cast as an old man
usually. Being some one else be-

side himself became second na-
ture.
In those repertory days, when
the company presented three or
four plays a week—plays by An-
dreyev, Gorki, Ibsen, Chekov—he
was three or four other men each
week.
“T never played a young man
until I appeared in the New York
production of ‘Four Walls,,”’ Muni
says. “In that I didn’t play my-
self. I was another young man.
“Tt isn’t easy to be someone
else. To be Pasteur, for instance,
hag taken weeks of hard work.
Long before the picture started
I began submerging myself in
him, eradicating every trace of
myself.
“J had to change my face,
widen my forehead, raise my
hairline and grow portly. But
the physical part of it was by
no means difficult. Any make-up
man can change your appear-
ance. Changing my voice, my
mannerisms, my personality, was
the hardest.
“Sometimes I am tempted to
allow some part of me to re-
main in the character I am cre-
ating. Then I think—“‘the public
doesn’t want to see Muni — it
wants to see Burns, the fugitive,
or Searface, or Jan, the coal
miner, or Dr. Cardwell, the gang-
ster’s doctor, or Pasteur, the
great scientist.”
“The Story of Louis Pasteur”
is the startling drama of the sci-
entist’s fight with the ignorance
prevailing at his time and his
effort to save life by science.
Muni is the star while others in
the cast include Josephine Hutch-
inson, Anita Louise, Donald
Woods and Fritz Leiber.
PAUL
Paul Muni was born Muni
Weisenfreud in Vienna on NSep-
tember 22nd, 1897, making him
an Austrian, but as his family
came to the United States when
he was very young he regards
himself as a 100 per cent Ameri-
can.
Was educated in the New York
schools, but his schooling was
often interrupted by professional
stage work from his eleventh
year on. He is one of a theatrical
and musical family, his father
and mother being actors, and his
two brothers, musicians.
Since his early childhood, his
ambition was to be a great fig-
ure on the stage. His first oppor-
tunity came when he was travel-
ing with his family. They were
about to open in a small town
and needed an actor to play an
old man’s role. No actor being
available, they tried the boy out
and he was kept in that part
from that time on. This was the
first of the many “old man”
character roles he hag played.
The stage play, “We Ameri-
cans,” brought him his first ree-
ognition in the New York theatre,
although he had played for sev-
eral seasons with the Theatre
Guild and other art theatres.
His present ambition is to be
allowed to continue his career

A Vignette
MUNI
He regards “Counsellor at
Law” as his favorite stage play,
“T Am A Fugitive From A Chain
Gang” as his favorite picture,
and “Seven Faces” as his worst
picture.
Music is his great interest out-
side of the theatre. Has studied
it since he was four years old
and loves it.
He is an exceedingly fine vio-
linist and could undoubtedly
make a success on the concert
stage should he ever give up act-
ing—which he emphatically will
not. Also might like to manage
prize fighters.
He is mad about the music of
Beethoven and Bach. For light
modern music he approves of Je-
rome Kern.
Prefers the stage to the screen.
Says, “Contrary to common be-
lief I do not think the screen
gives an actor more leisure or
home life.”
He prefers New York as a
place to live, but states that he
is “getting used to Hollywood”
and doesn’t mind it any more.
Buys his clothes in New York,
saying that his tailor knows ex-

Qld Time Circus Will Be
Seen In New Muni Picture
Wandering Shows of 1880 Duplicated in
“Story of Louis Pasteur”
A eireus is a circus to any child even though it doesn’t
reach the gigantic dimensions of the tented spectacles of
today.
There was a time when a Punch and Judy show, a trained
bear, a few acrobats, a flame
snake charmer and a wagon
eater, a sword swallower, a
load of gypsies made a very
satisfactory circus for young and old.
That was back in 1880 when
Louis Pasteur was hunting mi-
crobes.
A cireus such as Pasteur took
his children to see was given in
the Simi valley of California dur-
ing the filming of “The Story of
Louis Pasteur,” the Cosmopolitan
production, which comes to the
le TE Theatre on......--+
Pasteur.
The show was not a large af-
fair but quite gay. There were
six gaily painted wagons. In one
was the fire eater, in another was
the sword swallower, in another
was the Punch and Judy show,
in the fourth was the snake
charmer, in the fifth were the
acrobats and in the sixth were
the gypsy fortune tellers. :
Several little striped, tents had
been put up and in these men
with long whiskers and women
in long dresses sold dolls, canes,
parasols, cut out lambs, cats
which cried and dogs which
didn’t. In front of another tent
was a one-man band playing
French provincial airs. Strolling
around was a man with a bag
pipe.
Right behind him was the
ee
trained bear. The man didn’t
play the bag pipe because the
bear didn’t like it and no one
blamed him.
William Quinlan, First Na-
tional set dresser said that the
circus was true to the period in
every respect. He called in two
itinerant photographers carrying
cameras made in Pasteur’s time
who showed how the cameras
worked without shutters. They
were operated with lens caps.
The circus was of the wander-
ing type such as to be found on
the Continent at the time. It
went any place where crowds col-
lected. It is shown in the picture
in a scene in which a great erowd
had gathered to watch Pasteur
perform an experiment on some
sheep.
The picture is a dynamic dra-
ma of the battle fought for sci-
ence by Pasteur. Besides Muni,
the cast includes Josephine
Hutchinson, Anita Louise, Don-
ald Woods, Fritz Leiber, Henry
O’Neill and Porter Hall. William
Dieterle directed the picture
from the screen play by Sheri-
dan Gibney and Pierre Collings.

What went on in those two

We are not accustomed to get-

a fine black beard he wasn’t
waiting for a shave, He wanted
more, not less, whiskers.

That sounded difficult, It was.

“We grow more beard now,”
Mr. Muni said. “They didn’t give
me time to raise enough of my
own so we add a few.”
That only took a few minutes.
A tuft of hair was applied to the
lower lip. A few bits were glued
on here and there,
“Now comes the ordeal,” Mr.
Muni said. “I get a’ new skin on
the upper part of my face.”
Pasteur Lives Again
Mr. Campbell applied strange
liquids and worked them in. He
was very careful about it for he
had to create artificial skin tex-
ture over the original Muni hair
line. Little wrinkles appeared.
The brow became deeply fur-
rowed. There wasn’t a trace of
Mr. Muni’s face left.
He sat up and surveyed him-
self in the mirror. Then he took
a picture out of his pocket and
handed it to us.
“That is Pasteur,” he said.
We looked at the photograph.
We looked at the man in the
chair. They were identical.
Mr. Muni put on a padded
shirt and slipped into a coat.
Now he was portly and a littie
stooped. His voice changed. His
mannerisms changed.
And when he walked out into
the sunshine and headed for the
stage where William Dieterle,
the director, was awaiting him,
he was Mr. Muni no longer. Louis
Pasteur had come back to life.

“Be Story of Louis Pasteur’
Paul Muni Helps To Herd
Sheep For His New Film
Director Insists on Continental Method for
“Story of Louis Pasteur”’
By DAN MAINWARING
William Dieterle, one of Warner Bros. ace picture di-
rectors, has never herded sheep. He has been a carpenter, a
glazier, and an actor, among other things, but never a
shepherd.
Sheridan Gibney and Pierre Collings, the playwrights,
also are men whose sheep-tending education was sadly
neglected. The only thing they have had to do with sheep
was write about herding them
in “The Story of Louis Pasteur,”
the Cosmopolitan production now
showans ab the. tu. <a, Theatre
as a First National release.
Paul Muni went on the stage
at the age of twelve and until
he was fifteen he hadn’t seen a
live sheep.
Tony Gaudio can herd a cam-
era. But he knows nothing about
lambs, ewes or rams. For a long
time he thought that wool, like
cotton, grew on bushes.
Your correspondent, on _ the
other hand, has herded quite a
few sheep in his time. He is not
what one would call an expert
shepherd because he never could
bake sour dough bread.
But he understands the rudi-
ments of sheep herding. He has
found that the best thing to do
is to turn the sheep loose and
find a nice shade tree to sleep
under while the dogs do the
work. Naturally when he heard
that four men who were totally
ignorant of the fine points of
sheep herding were ¢1 route. to

herded, your correspondent was
interested.
The sheep sequence was re-
quired for “The Story of Louis
Pasteur,” in which Paul Muni is
starred, and which Dieterle is
directing.
There was one real shepherd on
hand. He was Tony Robles who
has herded sheep from San Juan
Capistrano to Clipper Gap. Rob-
les, his eight sheep dogs, and, his
seven herders, were hired to drive
the sheep.
The sheep were not at all im-
pressed with the company. They

didn’t even look at Muni when
he drove up. Your correspondent
did because Muni was wearing a
fine set of whiskers.
One of the big blue trucks was
loaded with dead sheep. Your
correspondent left off examining
Mr. Muni’s beard and took a look
at the sheep carcasses. They
looked real but they weren’t.
They were skins stuffed with
sawdust, newspapers, excelsior
and copies of old publicity stor-
ies.
Noting your correspondent’s
puzzled expression, Dieterle
handed him a copy of the script
and pointed to page 37, which
read:
“Long shot of the gigantic herd
thundering down the road with
several sheep left lying about
on the ground—dead with an-
thrax.
“Medium close shot, a hilltop—
the thunder of the bleating herd
as it sweeps over the camera
“Another ‘herd being driven at
breakneec” “ace through a shal-
eu by the way
The screen writers’ ignorance
of sheep herding ws evident
from the sheep.
“Who ever heard sheep thun-
der?” your correspondent asked.
“That’s dramatic license,” said
Dieterle.
By this time, Robles, a brown
old fellow with grey hair, wear-
ing the garb of a French peas-
ant, came up for instructions.
“Drive them up over that hill
and down toward the camera,”
Dieterle said. “Then take them
over the lane that crosses the
creek. We’ll follow.”
The herd got underway. The
herders, as is their wont, picked
up little clods and tossed them
-at their baaing chargers.
“Stop,” yelled Dieterle. “Not
“that way.”
Your correspondent wasamazed.
‘They had done nothing wrong.
California
“throw clods at their sheep. Some-
shepherds always
times they throw big sticks and
cobble stones if any are handy.
“But they don’t do it that way
in France,” said Dieterle. “You
see, I never herded sheep but
I’ve seen a lot of fine French and
German sheepherding. They have
little trowels on the ends of their
taffs and with the trowels they
coop up earth and toss it at the
heep. Then they don’t have to
end over.”
All went well after that. The
sheep’ came over the hill and ran
toward the camera. And the agile
property men dropped the prop
sheep carcasses by the wayside.
_ Robles did pretty well, too,
only he didn’t make the sheep
thunder. No one could do that,
not even a man who has been
herding sheep for fifty years.
Sheep never thunder nor travel
at breakneck speed.
“The Story of Louis Pasteur”
“is the startling drama of the sci-
entist’s fight with the ignorance

‘‘Story of Louis Pasteur”
Doctors Who See New Paul Muni Film Pay Tribute
To Great Scientist
Marking the 113th anniversary of the birth of Louis
Pasteur, the French scientist who revolutionized the theory
of medicine more than 50 prominent doctors attended a
special preview of the motion picture, ‘‘The Story of Louis
Pasteur,’’ at the New York office of Warner Bros., on De-
cember 27th, 1935.
Among those present were Drs. Louis I. Dublin, vice-
president of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Co., and Alfred
J. Lotka, statistical expert for
that company, who are the au-
thors of a forthcoming book,
“Length of Life,” which shows
that the life span of the average
man has been increased by more
than 20 years since Pasteur in-
troduced his theories on the part
germs played in causing disease.
The lives of countless millions
have been saved through Pas-
teur’s discoveries according to
Drs. Lotka and Dublin.
Dr. A. J. Crumbine, director of
the American Child Health As-
sociation, who also was present
at the showing of the film, which
will open at the....... . theatre
mph ee Goss , declared that public
ignorance which hampered Pas-
teur in his life-time still handi-
caps medical advancement and
that much is to be gained by
awakening the mothers and
fathers of America to the bene-
fits of science which are available
to them.
Recommended to Parents
“This is a picture which every
mother and father should see,”
Dr. Crumbine said. “Louis Pasteur
made certain benefits available
to mothers and children, but un-
fortunately the world still is not
profiting to the utmost from his
revolutionary discoveries.”
Dr. John L. Rice, Health Com-
missioner of New York City, who
also attended, added that even
in New York many mothers and
children die unnecessarily through
ignorance of hospital facilities
which they might have for the
asking. Dr. Charles Bolduan, di-
rector of the New York Bureau
of Public Health Education, and
Savil Zimond, assistant director,
also attended the preview.
Also present was Dr. William
Freeman Snow, member of the
board of directors of the Na-
tional Health Council and a di-
rector of the American Social
Hygience Society.
“Men like Louis Pasteur are
working in laboratories through-
out the world today,’ he said.
“But, like Pasteur, they work be-
hind the scenes, unknown to the
public whom they benefit as much
or more than any soldier or
statesman. It gave me_ great
pleasure to see the life of Pas-
teur dramatized so that all who

ae TAT ILL yp,
Startling Feat
of Science Seen
in Film Drama
Fifty years ago, Louis Pasteur,
the great scientist, used his rabies
serum on a human for the first
time and saved the life of 9-year-
old Joseph Meister.
This dramatic experiment
which cut the death rate of the
dread disease to less than one per
cent, is reenacted in the Cosmo-
politan production, “The Story of
Louis Pasteur,” which is being
shown at the Theatre
as a First National release.
Paul Muni portrays Pasteur.
Dickie Moore takes the part of
the Meister boy.
While the camera and micro-
pe. WSUS
phone recorded the scene, the boy —
whose life was really saved was
going about his duties as janitor
in the Pasteur Institute in Paris.
The scene was accurate in
every detail. Before it was made,
First National’s Paris representa-
tives located Meister at the In-
stitute and heard him tell the
story of how Pasteur actually
gave him the rabies treatment
fifty years ago.

discovery.””»,
Louis Pastear was bor
Dole, France, the son of a , a
tunner. He died in 1895.
Curiously enough, this
who contributed more to
health of mankind than probably
any other single individual, was
not himself a doctor, but a chem-
ist, whose work happened to di-
rect his interests especially to
problems in biology. Throughout
his lifetime he fought constantly
against the prejudice and ignor-
ance of medical men of his day.
Risked Life for Boy
Once, when a mother pleaded
with him to treat her son for
rabies and thereby save his life,
Pasteur was threatened with
exile, disgrace and possibly death
on the guillotine. Yet he defied
the men of science, treated the
lad and saved him. This youth,
now grown to manhood, resides in
Paris, hale and hearty, the
father of seven children. His
name is Joseph Meister.
Again when a plague of rabies
swept Russia and a flood of men
facing death came to him for aid,
Pasteur was forced to stand alone
against the barrage of criticism
and attack that came from medi-
cal men who refused to recognize
any departure from the tradi-
tional methods.
Before the advent of inocula-
tion the annual death rate from
diphtheria, for example, was over
125 per 100,000, and occasionally
rose to 300 per 100,000 in New
York City. Since the use of
antitoxin was introduced, the
death rate from this disease has
dropped rapidly, until today it
hovers around zero in many cities.
The motion picture, “The Story
of Louis Pasteur,” a Cosmopoli-
tan Production released by First
National, is the first biographi-
cal film of a great man of séi-
ence. Paul Muni plays the role
of Louis Pasteur, Josephine
Hutchinson is Madame Pasteur
and Anita Louise is Annette Pas

duction.

Don’t Marry an Actor,
Says Actress
An actress shouldn’t marry an
actor if she wants to be happy.
She should marry an agent—not
a book agent, but an actor’s
agent.
This is the advice of Josephine
Hutchinson, who plays opposite
Paul Muni in “The Story of
Louis Pasteur,” the Cosmopolitan
production which comes to the
Mees rd: Theatre:vonase ee
Miss Hutchinson knows this is
good advice—she married her
own agent, Jimmy Townsend.
“Agents understand their cli-
ents,” Miss Hutchinson says.
“They have to. get along with
them. They know. each player’s
whims and idiosyncrasies. They
understand the peculiar self-en-
grossment that each player must
have to be real on the stage or
screen.”
Henry O’Neill One of
Film’s ‘‘Reliables”’
The “old reliables” play an im-
portant part in the success of
any motion picture. These are
the established, dependable play-
ers, whose names are seldom seen
in lights on theatre marquees,
but who carry the burden of the
smaller roles so well that the
whole tone of the production is
improved by their presence.
Henry O’Neill is one such “re-
liable.” An experienced actor,
with a successful stage career as
a background, O’Neill handles
his roles with the ease and au-
thority of the true veteran. His
name in a cast is assurance that
one part will be played expertly.

“bhe Story of Levis Pasteur’
IMPORTANT
Seldom has such acclaim heralded
the approach of a motion picture as
that which has preceded ‘‘The Story
of Louis Pasteur.”’
Although it was originally sched-
uled for release one month
from now, the pressure of
public interest and demand,
fostered by excited press re-
ports from Hollywood, has
become so great that we
have been forced to postpone
other attractions in order
to bring this important pro-
duction in immediately.
One of the most unusual and im-
portant films ever produced, ‘‘The
Story Of Louis Pasteur’’ dramatically
portrays the thrilling life story of one
of the truly great heroes of all time—
the man who braved a thousand deaths
that countless millions might live.
It is a picture which we present
with pride and unhesitatingly recom-
mend to every one of our patrons.
Screened by Warner Bros. on a
lavish scale worthy of its great sub-
ject, it provides Paul Muni with the
most powerful role of his ca-
reer, supported by a huge cast
including such film notables
as Josephine Hutchinson,
Anita Louise, Donald Woods,
Fritz Leiber.
Unfortunately, the demands of
world-wide booking contracts
permit only a limited engage-
ment. We therefore urge you to
see this momentous film during the
early part of its run. We are confident
you will find it one of the most memor-
able screen experiences of your life
and that it will be excitedly discussed
for many, many months to come.

If Pasteur had not won his historic struggle against jeering
persecution and the ruthless killers of an unseen world,
millions of our generation would not have survived to ap-
plaud this breathless drama of his life.
For alone, defying an emperor's wrath and an empire’s
mockery, he dared to pierce the veil between life and
~—death...... to fight the invisible “public enemies” of man!
ay Alone ... but for one woman at his side .. . he waged war
4 | on the unseen evil that stalked from the gutters of Paris
‘to claim the fairest flower of the womanhood of France!

important and unusual productions of their career

YOU COULD SQ) HEAR A
PIN ‘DROP
Yesterday a thronged audience saw the first performance in this
city of “The Story ot Louis Pasteur. * Literally, you couid hear a
pin drop as they sat through its 87 electric minutes. There was no
applause when the picture ended. A far greater tribute—the hushed
silence of deep emotion—grested the climax of this amazing film.
‘The Story of Louis Pasteur” is that kind of picture!
No gang wars—but a hiclone singlehanded battle against
the ruthless killers of an unseen world. No grease- paint
heroics— but’ the real-life drama of the man who braved a
thousand deaths that countless! millions might live. Today you
can take heart and courage from the bravest story ever told!
